Why is Fluoride in our Water? | May 7, 2025
- United States because it helps strengthen our teeth enamel and helps prevent cavities. And in fact, the CDC has called this one of the top 10 public health interventions of the last century because it does this so well. Dentists have called this one of the frontline defenses, really, against cavities. And they like this approach so much because it can help everybody in a community regardless of their ability to pay to go to the dentist or buy fluoride products. So it really creates a baseline sort of defense for oral health. About two-thirds of the U.S. population currently has fluoridated public drinking water. But of course, that is starting to change. We are seeing states start to ban adding fluoride to drinking water, starting with Utah, perhaps Florida, and others as well. And the concerns there really have been around fluoride's potential to affect brain development at higher levels than is recommended in the U.S.
